Travis Wear has signed with the Los Angeles Lakers on a camp deal.

Wear will have a chance to compete for a roster spot with the Lakers in training camp.

The Los Angeles Lakers have signed forward Zach Auguste.

Auguste averaged 5.3 points and 4.0 rebounds in 15:41 minutes per game in four games (one start) for the Lakers’ entry in the 2016 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. The 6’10’’ Auguste played four seasons at Notre Dame, averaging 14.0 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks per game as a senior in 2015-16 en route to a Third Team All-ACC selection.

The 23-year-old shot 56.7% from the field in his 128-game career at Notre Dame, and led the ACC in rebounding as a senior, highlighted by a career-best 22 rebound performance against Duke in the 2016 ACC Tournament.

The Lakers training camp roster currently stands at 16.

The Los Angeles Lakers have signed center Tarik Black.

“Tarik is a player whose strengths are well-suited for the style of play we envision for our team going forward,” said Mitch Kupchak. “He plays the game with a mix of athleticism, energy, and physicality that make him a valuable frontcourt contributor in today’s NBA.”

In two seasons with the Lakers, Black has averaged 5.3 points and 5.2 rebounds in 16.9 per game while shooting 57.5% from the field over 77 games (27 starts). Awarded to the Lakers on a waiver claim on December 28, 2014, he also appeared in 25 games (12 starts) for the Houston Rockets to begin the 2014-15 season before being waived.

Yi Jianlian agreed to a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers that carries a cap number of $8 million.

Yi must earn $6.8 million through "likely bonuses."

Yi established himself as one of the better players in China after leaving the NBA in 2012.

Brandon Ingram will sign his rookie contract with the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday.

The Lakers have waited on signing Ingram in order to have more cap flexibility.

The Lakers will likely go over the cap with their signing of Ingram.

Bobby Marks reports Michael Carter-Williams is still the latest a lottery pick has signed as the Philadelphia 76ers didn't sign him until September 19, 2013.

The Los Angeles Lakers have signed Yi Jianlian.

“We’re excited to have a player of his worldwide accomplishments,” said Mitch Kupchak. “We look forward to bringing him to training camp and hopefully having him make an impact on our team.”

Yi, who hails from the Guangdong Province in China, recently concluded competing for his country at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, averaging 20.4 points (3rd overall in group play competition), 6.6 rebounds (6th), 1.4 steals (t-6th), and 1.0 blocks (t-6th) per game over his five contests while shooting 46.7% from three-point range.

Drafted with the sixth overall pick in the 2007 NBA Draft by the Milwaukee Bucks, Yi last appeared in the NBA with the Dallas Mavericks during the 2011-12 season. Over his five-year NBA career, Yi averaged 7.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 0.7 blocks in 22.2 minutes per game over 272 contests (163 starts) with the Bucks, New Jersey Nets, Washington Wizards, and Mavericks.

The Los Angeles Lakers have hired Jud Buechler, Brian Keefe and Theo Robertson as player development coaches on Luke Walton’s staff, joining associate head coach Brian Shaw and assistant coaches Jesse Mermuys and Mark Madsen. 

Buechler enjoyed a 12-year playing career highlighted by winning three consecutive championships with the Chicago Bulls from 1996-98, and was a member of the 1995-96 Bulls team that went 72-10 in the regular season. 

Keefe comes to L.A. after spending the last two seasons serving as an assistant coach with the New York Knicks. Prior to his stint with the Knicks, Keefe spent seven seasons working with the Oklahoma City Thunder after joining the franchise in the summer of 2007, where he was a player development coach for two years before spending his last five seasons as an assistant coach.  

Robertson joins the Lakers after spending the previous two seasons with the Golden State Warriors, where he was part of the 2015 NBA championship as the team’s video intern, working with Steve Kerr’s coaching staff assisting with game preparation. He was promoted to video coordinator/player development prior to the 2015-16 season, working on-court with players in addition to his game-planning responsibilities.

Yi Jianlian and the Los Angeles Lakers are close to agreement on a deal for the 16-17 season.

Yi’s contract would be for the veteran’s minimum of $1.139 million that could reach “several million more” if he reaches some wide-ranging incentive bonuses in the deal, one official said.

The official said Yi’s Chinese Guangdong team first has to sign off on the deal and then send it to the Chinese Basketball Assn. to sign off on. Then the CBA has to send to the contract to FIBA, the federation that governs international basketball competition, to sign off it. Then the contract goes to the NBA for approval.

The Lakers also pursued Yi last offseason.

Xavier Henry will continue his attempt at returning to the NBA with the Los Angeles Lakers, joining them for a minicamp in hopes of training camp invite.

Henry ruptured his left Achilles tendon early in the 14-15 season while with the Lakers.

“I’ve been doing a lot of workouts this summer with a lot of different teams and getting feedback and seeing how I feel,” Henry said. “I’ve been feeling really good. I’m feeling blessed that I can even play basketball again.”

In April 2014 — at the end of a breakout season that saw him average 10.0 points in 21.1 minutes — he had to undergo surgeries for both a torn ligament in his left wrist and a cartilage abnormality in his right knee.

Henry had a training camp invite from the Warriors last season and then played in the D-League for Santa Cruz.
